Steelers' Vince Williams Will Give Bills' Karlos Williams SB Ticket If Jets Lose

The Pittsburgh Steelers' playoff hopes hang in the balance of two things: a win over the Cleveland Browns and a New York Jets loss to the Buffalo Bills.

Pittsburgh Linebacker Vince Williams is using family ties and Super Bowl tickets as bargaining chips with his younger brother, Bills rookie running back Karlos Williams.

"I was like, 'Man, look, we're trying to go to the Super Bowl, bro," Vince Williams told Chris Bradford of the Beaver County Times. "I told him I'd get him a ticket. I told him, 'You could go to the Super Bowl. It's not like y'all are going to be going.'"

Which is true—Buffalo kissed their playoff chances goodbye for the 16th consecutive time. But as Bradford pointed out, the Bills still have a stake in Sunday's game. A win would keep their heads above water at .500 for the season, while avenging head coach Rex Ryan, who was fired by the Jets last December.

"[Karlos] said they're going to do their best," Vince Williams told Bradford. "They're not packing it in. They really want to do a solid for Rex, too. Rex got fired [from New York], so I'm pretty sure they're looking forward to getting a little bit of payback for their head coach."
